Andreea being baptized in Babadag Lake.
Sunday after our 112 group Andreea decided it was time to be baptized.  So we baptized her in Babadag Lake.  We are very proud of her.  We hope for many more to come.  It was very important for her to be baptized not into a denomination but only in the saving message of Jesus Christ.  Way to go Andreea!

Sheena's parents come in tomorrow. We can't believe it.  We are so excited. Pray for safe travel and a good time together.   Right after they leave we will have an intern working with us.  We are excited to meet her and have her here in Romania.  And then we will have two summer camps for the kids that we work with.  The camp will be run by an American team from Minnesota.

The latest 112 group
For three days I "helped" (I didn't do much)  a community organization that works with kids by simply playing games with them. The group I helped with was training teenagers how to play with younger kids. It was a lot of fun and I was able to meet many people from Babadag.  Kale even got to play.  The leader of the group is Andreea and Madalina two of our very good friends here in Romania.
Community game playing. This is my favorite game- to watch





Yesterday was a fun day of riding on a train for 9 hours.  I applied for and was awarded my last set of "red numbers" for our car.  The red numbers are temporary license until all the paperwork is turned in for the black numbers which is the official  registration.  We have a lawyer working on the registration.  The train ride is not wasted.  I talked to Clayton Lundsted Minister at Wymore Church of Christ,  Ian Miller a student in my youth group in Auburn and my brother Zach he is getting married next month.  There is also reading and planning for summer teams.

Please keep praying for Babadag.  We are praying for the church to create and lead culture in this town. Please pray for the summer camps to be a good time of study, fellowship, and decisions to follow Jesus.

Thanks so much
